Slot him into the four and hope he averages 14-17 points. Does not help the defense but will give Hood and Little more space on the court. Hezonga will also see less minutes hopefully.

Another monster game by Doncic. 42 pts 11 rebs and 12 assists. Dallas is making the play-off's this year.

Looks like Pau Gasol is retiring, shame that foot injury has ended his career it seems, will be next to his boy in the rafters at the staples soon and I think will be eligible to go into the hall of fame with wade and dirk

Just outscored GSW 22-16 in the first quarter, and had a 35pt triple double by early in the 3rd. He's a bit special.

yes he is, seems like euro kids doing very well, now Bogdan has been on fire for the Kings. Been following him since his Fenerbahce days, he has a bit of Manu-Stojakovic in him. Arguably best player for the Kings this year.

The bottom 4 teams in the Western Conference were all playoff teams last year. I suspect the Spurs will find a way in but things change quickly.

We can't' buy a win at the moment. DeRozan and Aldridge need to be traded.

What happened to Golden state - I know one of the 3 shooters is gone for the season and Durant too - other injuries?

steph injured, green has issues as has Russell so it’s basically the g league warriors now

to who though, unless you take on a toxic contract like Chris Paul it’s not happening for anything decent

For anything really apart from bad contracts. DeRozan is a free agent next summer and Spurs won't resign him, that's pretty much guaranteed.

LA at the time was a great signing but the league has changed drastically.

-Curry injured
-Klay out for the year
-Russell now injured as well
-Green not as good as he was before
-Durant left
-Iggy left
-Livingston retired
-Quin Cook and Jordan Bell also left

So no starters or proper bench, or defense for that matter.

I think once we saw Steph being injured, we clearly preferred to write this season off and get a good pick in the draft. With healthy Steph, Klay and Draymond we are contenders again and with a lottery pick we are the favorites. Russell will be traded for sure and good to see likes of Paschall developing well.

I think Draymond should be traded. Imo he's regressed in the last two years. I get why they didn't do so this year, but imo next season they should move him if possible.

they have a 6 day window to trade him, seeing as minny wanted russell wonder if there would be a wiggins/russell trade anytime soon

Problem is what would you get back, at a push the only team with title aspirations who I think may want one of them is Boston for Aldridge, can’t see anyone pushing the boat out for derozan nor give up a good young asset or a low protected pick, maybe an Orlando may try for him but don’t think they’d get equal value in return

True but he was one of the centerpieces of us last 5 years so no way he is getting traded. He compliments our play well as long as Steph and Klay is healthy.

Kemba carted out with concussion like symptoms after crashing into Semi Ojeleye, I hope he comes back soon and healthy and the injury is not as bad as it seemed like.

If this is true he needs firing and removing from the hall of fame
Ffs, this is actually comical and i really don't wanna believe such thing but then again if true, oh boy.
Also he should've measured dad+mom as parents instead and that way Doncic's mom would add value ;)

to be honest it’s believable simply because it’s the kings!

Speaking of the kings and their ineptitude, this is brilliant

Kyrie has to win some games in a row for Nets or else he will be a locker room issue. Already some raising voices against him when Nets went 5-2 or 6-2 without him.
